    I'm still too wimpy to empty the hoover and go back to dealing with the sitting room. Maybe after lunch :o

    I've packed up Jo's parcel though - and realised that the post office isn't open this afternoon :rolleyes:. I need to get myself some sellotape & parcel tape before I can do Zoe's. I also put a charity bag out today, so the decluttering is continuing, if more slowly now that there is significantly less stuff here...

    The cake is out of the oven and cooling. Hopefully it will be enough. If not, I'll have to do another batch.

    Washing up is done. DW is finished, but I'm leaving it for a while to dry properly.

    I've hoovered the kitchen floor, man it was :eek:! Really really bad! But looks lovely now! Redid a bit of the LR floor too - I think we are getting there. CHAOS is receding! Still lots of work to do, but progress is being made.

    Have also put away laundry and hung out wet laundry. And done some walking up and down.

    Oh how wierd, it's just started bucketing down! Hope DH won't get too wet!

    Afternoon all, haven't caught up yet - hope everyone's OK. I've looked quickly at the lists and I've done Monday and Tuesday.

    I've got one load of washing out on the line and it seems to be drying.

    Asda delivery has been and that's all put away. I thought I had broken eggs but on investigation it turned out that my eggs are fine and the mess was on the outside of the box. It did smell :( so I've put the eggs into a bowl and ditched the box.

    Off to catch up a bit now while dinner is cooking.

    Snappy Smurf had his age reversed and became Snappy Smurfling. Snappy wears a yellow tee-shirt with a storm cloud on it - which is indicative of his disposition. Snappy can be quite snappy at times!

    I did quite well in my 2nd HHc but then I had to shoot off and pick the kids so I've come back and made dinner and here I am.

    So in my HHC I

    Finished decluttering and wiped all surfaces
    Wiped small appliances and decrumbed the toaster
    Swept the floor

    So I was quite pleased with that.
